400m swim, 13.6mi bike, 5k. I swam 8:30, very crowded up to the first turn. I had to keep my head up and just try to stay in between the people in front of and behind me. The bike went very well, I averaged 21.3mph. The course was fairly flat (nothing big just slight rolling hills), but there were lots of turns. The run was hot and humid. I was drenched in sweat and was able to ring out the slippers I put on after the race w/in a couple of minutes. It was a fun race though and had a good turn out by the local triclub that I am a part of. This was the last tri of the season for me, now I can focus on just running. I will still ride my 25mi on wednesday with the group, but I'll take it easy. |
